It has two run modes. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md. ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run. For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below. Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`). # README ## Norwegian Price Comparison Actor ### Overview Track product and shop prices in the Norwegian market using GTINs (EAN‑13/EAN‑8), covering major retailers such as Elkjøp, Zalando, Komplett, POWER, Temu, Maxbo, Jernia, Sport1, Intersport...\ Built for eCommerce teams, marketers, and analysts who need clear, reliable price data.\ No coding required — this Actor is designed to be **no‑code friendly**, so anyone can run it and export results without technical setup. *** ### ✨ Features - Input: List of GTINs (8 or 13 digits, usually EAN‑13 or EAN‑8). - Tracks the **lowest price** and saves product details with a timestamp for each item. - Optionally collects **all available merchant offers** for competitor comparison. - Produces: - **Default dataset** → product summary with `shop` dictionary of merchant prices. - **Offers CSV file** → one row per merchant, ready for Excel or BI analysis (download link is logged after the run). *** ### ⚙️ How it works 1. **Enter GTINs (EAN‑13/EAN‑8 numbers)**\ Paste one or more 8‑ or 13‑digit codes. Each GTIN (EAN) identifies a product you want to track. 2. **Include all shop offers**\ Switch ON to collect **all available merchant prices**.\ Switch OFF to save only the lowest price for each product. 3. **Generate Offers CSV file**\ Switch ON the *Generate Offers CSV file* input.\ After scraping, the Actor saves the file `!OFFERS-DATASET.csv` into the run’s **Apify Key-Value Store**.\ At the bottom of **Log**, you’ll see a message with a Console link like:\ `📂 Offers CSV file saved to Key-Value Store: https://console.apify.com/storage/key-value-stores/`\ Open that page in the Apify Console and download the record `!OFFERS-DATASET.csv`.\ The file contains **merchant‑level rows for Excel/BI analysis**, structured differently than the Default dataset. 4. **Run the Actor**\ It gathers product details and prices, then saves results into the default dataset and (optionally) the offers CSV file. *** ### 📊 Example Outputs **Default dataset (JSON):** → product summary with `shop` dictionary of merchant prices. ```json { "ean": "0195950643589", "category": "Mobiltelefoner", "productId": "3431242036", "name": "Apple iPhone 17, 256GB Black", "lowestPrice": 11799, "currency": "NOK", "outOfStock": false, "images": "https://owp.klarna.com/product/3239000223/Apple-iPhone-17-256GB-Black.jpg", "productUrl": "https://www.klarna.com/no/shopping/pl/cl1/3431242036/Mobiltelefoner/Apple-iPhone-17-256GB-Black/", "scrapedAt": "2026-10-01T17:45:40.544Z", "shop": { "CDON": 12533, "CS_MEGASTORE": 11982, "Elkjøp": 12490, "Eplehuset": 12490, "Ice": 12490, "Komplett": 12490, "Multicom": 13710, "NetOnNet": 12490, "POWER": 12490, "Talkmore": 12490, "Telia": 11990, "Telenor.no": 12490, "homeit.no": 11799 } } ``` **Offers dataset (CSV):** → merchant rows for Excel or BI analysis, created only if the checkbox is ON (direct download link is logged after the run). | ean | merchant | price | name | category | productId | |-------------|--------------|--------|----------------------------|-----------------|-------------| | 195950643589| CDON | 12533 | iPhone 17 256GB Black | Mobiltelefoner | 3431242036 | | 195950643589| CS\_MEGASTORE | 11982 | iPhone 17 256GB Black | Mobiltelefoner | 3431242036 | | 195950643589| Elkjøp | 12490 | iPhone 17 256GB Black | Mobiltelefoner | 3431242036 | | 195950643589| Eplehuset | 12490 | iPhone 17 256GB Black | Mobiltelefoner | 3431242036 | | 195950643589| Ice | 12490 | iPhone 17 256GB Black | Mobiltelefoner | 3431242036 | | 195950643589| Komplett | 12490 | iPhone 17 256GB Black | Mobiltelefoner | 3431242036 | | 195950643589| Multicom | 13710 | iPhone 17 256GB Black | Mobiltelefoner | 3431242036 | | 195950643589| NetOnNet | 12490 | iPhone 17 256GB Black | Mobiltelefoner | 3431242036 | | 195950643589| POWER | 12490 | iPhone 17 256GB Black | Mobiltelefoner | 3431242036 | | 195950643589| Talkmore | 12490 | iPhone 17 256GB Black | Mobiltelefoner | 3431242036 | | 195950643589| Telenor.no | 12490 | iPhone 17 256GB Black | Mobiltelefoner | 3431242036 | | 195950643589| Telia | 11990 | iPhone 17 256GB Black | Mobiltelefoner | 3431242036 | | 195950643589| homeit.no | 11799 | iPhone 17 256GB Black | Mobiltelefoner | 3431242036 | *** ### 💡 Use Cases -

Paste multiple codes to track several products at once. Both 13‑digit GTINs (EAN‑13 standard) and 8‑digit GTINs (EAN‑8 for small items) are supported. ## `shop` (type: `boolean`): When ON, the Actor saves detailed rows for each shop’s price. When OFF, only product summaries with the lowest price are saved. ## `offersXlsx` (type: `boolean`): Switch ON to export merchant offers into a separate CSV file after scraping. A download link will be shown in the log. ## Actor input object example ```json { "startEANs": [ "8806095815718" ], "shop": true, "offersXlsx": false } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): No description # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
